100 FT SEWER JETTER - Flexible Steel Braid - Complete and Ready to Use - For Your 2.0 to 2.8 GPM Gas Pressure Washer

Like others, I was tempted to buy the China-made version for $39. However as others have pointed out, the head on those are significantly larger than this yellow model and the others are apparently susceptible to blowouts.I bought the electric Snake Jet version and used it with a SunJo 2000psi pressure washer to clear a 40ft cast iron 3" drain pipe pipe that included several turns before ultimately merging with a main drain that dumped into a septic tank.I had paid a plumber $325 to snake the pipe using a 5/8" auger after a 3/8" auger failed to clear the clog. The 5/8" auger did the job to free the clog of mostly grease. But it became apparent the auger only punched a hole through the clog and it was just a matter of time the problem would resurface yet again.I purchased this Snake Jet to "clean" the drain pipe and glad I did. Knowing the gas pressure washer version was the right tool for the job, I bought the electric version because I only have an electric pressure washer. The electric set up did the job, but it gave me a workout for an hour. The grease muck was definitely apparent at several places as I worked the Snake Jet down the drain. I'm fairly confident the drain is as clean as it's been in the 40 year life of the home. The gas version would have very likely made the job faster and easier because of the added pressure and volume of jetted water. But for an infrequent event, I'm ok with how this job turned out using the electric setup.At $150, the Snake Jet is expensive and when it arrived, I suspect most people's reaction is disappointment because the package is quite small and seems like a product that shouldn't cost more than $40 or so. But the product is very well made and engineered and like most experience, the result pays for itself when you consider the alternative. The hose composition is nearly a perfect blend of flexibility and rigidity. And the small bullet-like tip is the secret sauce of this device. It seems well afixed to the hose which is important because the last thing you want is for high pressure to blow the tip off well inside of the drain.Usage Tip: if working alone, try to place the pressure washer wand near your foot and operate the trigger with your foot while using two hands to work the hose in & out while twisting as needed. Also, if you have the option of placing the pressure washer outside near a window, that may save save some clean up time since the jetter hose is likely to have plenty of muck when pulling it out. And having a second person handy with a rag/paper towels and guiding the hose out the window upon retraction would be helpful as well.

As other have said, just buy this one. It's great. I bought the 100-ft hose for Electric Pressure Washers. The 2" line from the kitchen sink gets clogged with grease. I could not get around the elbows in the wall below the sink - I suspect somebody used vent fittings instead of drain fittings. The pipe is accessible under the house so I cut out a short piece near the main stack and glued in a clean-out tee. From this new access point I was able to jet up-stream and remove the clog. It felt like there was maybe 15 of grease in 20-ft of pipe. The jetter worked better than I expected and now the line flows freely. This is a reoccurring clog. Last time I replaced the pipe. This jetter was easier (but more expensive). But now I can jet the every couple of years and keep it clean. My pressure washer is a cheap electric from Harbor Freight with the wand upgrade. For sure this jetting hose is expensive. It's cheaper than hiring a plumber. And now I have it for next time. Buy once, cry once. I am very happy with it.

Less than 24hour delivery time frame, can’t be that! High quality fittings and hose! I did remove the ball end nozzle with a 7/16 open end wrench and small pliers and added a drop of blue loctite thread locker before using this product, because one reviewer stated that the ball end nozzle unscrewed in the drain never to be seen again. But don’t let my quick little trick keep you from buying this product, it woks great!I like the small size of the ball end nozzle and hose for drain cleaning jobs.Another trick I used was too utilize and old 15ft 5/8 garden hose as a sleeve to slide the flexible pressure line through, because the ball end was getting hung up on the 4” PVC union / coupling 10-12ft away from the access port ( there was no 90 degree fittings in my drain line, but this sleeve trick may help people with 90 degree fittings in their lines?) the 5/8 garden hose gets past the PVC coupling much easier than the small flex line.I invested in the high quality product, made in USA ($149).

Had a longstanding log on my kitchen sink that I had to snake once every few months. So finally got sick of it, and got this. If you're expecting something like Drain Cleaning Australia, this isn't it. It's not going to rip down the pipe and blast through that grease plug in the line. In my case, I would have to snake the line (which would poke a hole through the clog), then run the jet down... jet would clean pipe in front of clog, and that would then plug up the hole... so jet would stop right at the clog. Pull it back out, snake again, jet again, snake, jet, snake, jet.What finally got it for me was a second person going into my crawlspace with a heat gun, and warming the ABS drain line where the clog was. That let the water jet blast on through. Ran it back and forth for a good 4-5 minutes cleaning the whole line.Turns out the ABS was making contact with the foundation and that caused that second to be "cold"... which meant any fats in the sink water would solidify there and slowly build up. Shoved a piece of packing foam between foundation and pipe, and hopefully that'll solve it.The product itself seems quite nice. Flexible, will go around 90 degree turns (though it can take a little back and forth, or twisting). Would definitely suggest having a stubby gun for your pressure washer. Would also go through a cleanout... and maybe make a little extension for the cleanout (if it's under the sink) so you can have it over a bucket...If I have to use it again, I might consider slightly drilling out the head. Would be nice if it had a bit higher flow rate...
